The generation of supermodels from Instagram has gained momentum significantly this year, but it seems that Brazilian Gisele Bundchen does not give up her position as the queen of the catwalk. She is significantly ahead of her competitors in terms of income — she earned $ 30.5 million for the year — despite the fact that her income fell by 30%.

Forbes magazine published its list of the richest models, and it turned out that 36-year-old Giselle earns almost three times more than, for example, Kendall Jenner, who managed to earn $ 10 million from June 2015 to June 2016. But the affairs of the representative of the Kardashian family are not so bad: due to the skillful use of social networks and a contract with the Estée Lauder cosmetics brand, her income has increased one and a half times over the year. Victoria's Secret model Karlie Kloss shares third place with Kendall Jenner, and right behind them is socialite and fashion model Gigi Hadid, who earned 9 million. In the second place is another Brazilian, Adriana Lima. The girl has been cooperating with Victoria's Secret for a long time, and also earns good money on contracts with Maybelline cosmetics brands, Vogue Eyewear glasses and IWC watches. For the first time in the list was Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, who was ahead of Miranda Kerr and Cara Delevingne.
